5 Ways You Can Apply This Useful Technique to Create What You Want

If we learn how to use visualization effectively, we can become powerful achievers and create what we want.

Visualization is used in sports, business and life to reach new or greater levels of success. Yet, it’s not something that’s commonly mentioned when wanting to achieve a new outcome.

What is Visualization?

Visualization is a technique that allows us to see an outcome or goal as already complete, before it is. It’s using the power of our mind, through our imagination, to create mental images of what we want.

It’s creating a movie on the screen of our minds of things we’d like to do, achieve or experience. Each time we visualize, we’re engaging our subconscious mind to make what we’re visualizing come true.

Why Visualization Works?

When we visualize, it creates a gap in our subconscious mind between what we currently have or where we are, and what we’re visualizing. This creates structural tension in our mind.

Whenever there is tension, our mind will seek to resolve it. This means our mind will work on filling the gap between what we have and what we want.

This will show up as greater levels of motivation, better ideas and more creativity, so we can reach what we’re visualizing. We’ll also pay more attention things around us, which may be clues to get us closer to where we want to be.

The Benefits of Visualization

The benefits of visualization include:

More inspiration and motivation.

Better levels of focus.

Higher self-confidence.

Enhanced levels of creativity.

Better habits or behaviours.

Improved skill levels.

New ideas or insights to solve problems.

Faster achievement of goals or outcomes.

Elevated levels of performance.

The more we can harness the power of visualization, the more success we can have.

How Committing to Constantly Growing Will Improve Your Life

Having a growth mindset will make a huge difference to our self-confidence and the quality of our lives.

As we are beings programmed for growth, if we’re not growing, we won’t be at our best. This is why having a growth mindset is important.

What is a Growth Mindset?

A growth mindset is a commitment to be the best we can be and harness our potential. It’s our willingness to use our experiences to become the person we know we can be.

Not everything in life will go as we expect or as we plan. There will be challenges, disappointments and failures as we strive to get to where we want to be in life.

Having a growth mindset means doing what’s required to achieve what we want. It’s having a belief that with the right thinking, strategies and actions, we can succeed in what we choose.

A person with a growth mindset commits to learning what’s necessary to achieve results they want. A person who doesn’t have a growth mindset will not explore new options to achieve the results they want.

Those who don’t have a growth mindset have a fixed mindset.

A simple example is of a person who wants to develop a new skill. If they have a growth mindset, they know with dedication and constant practice, they’ll develop a certain level of competence.

If they have a fixed mindset, they may complain about how difficult the process is and will want to quit. Their internal dialogue is focused on the negative aspects of the process rather than the potential reward.

5 Simple Ideas That Will Make a Big Difference in Your Life

It’s encouraging to know we can make massive progress by making small changes to what and how we do things.

When we’re not consistently making progress, we don’t have high levels of enthusiasm to live our best lives. A common mistake we make is to make drastic changes, without preparing ourselves as best we can.

For example, people set new year’s resolutions because they want to change or achieve something. They may start off with a lot of excitement. If, however, they don’t have the right habits or a plan, they’re more likely to quit if progress is slow.

Why is Making Progress Important?

We’re all programmed for growth. If we aren’t growing, it means we’re dying. If we aren’t making progress in life, we will:

Not experience true joy and happiness.

Feel stuck or stagnant.

Not express ourselves fully.

Not challenge ourselves to dream big or take new risks.

Stop believing in ourselves and what’s possible for us.

When we’re making progress, we feel alive and excited about our lives and what’s ahead.

Sometimes, small changes over time, is a smarter approach to take, as it can lead to massive progress. There is a Chinese Proverb which says, “A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”
